  • Publication number: 20230286794
    Abstract: A foil cutter has a unitary container engaging sleeve, a unitary foil cutter assembly, and a cutting blade retained therebetween. The container engaging sleeve has a cylindrical outer shell, a container opening receiving cavity, a lip configured to contact with a container affixed foil seal, and a blade retainer. The foil cutter assembly has a body that is inserted within the outer shell, and a cutting blade retainer. The cutting blade is extends from the foil cutter assembly, but is recessed within the container engaging sleeve to prevent accidental contact. The foil cutter is operably pressed onto a receptacle opening sealed by an affixed foil seal, and then rotated to pierce, remove, and retain the foil seal. A seal pusher has geometry complementary to the foil cutter assembly, and inserts longitudinally through to discharge foil seals that have been separated from containers, preferably into an empty container.

  • Patent number: 9616719
    Abstract: A valve cap and core tool has an elongate shaft terminated by a valve core head at one end and a valve cap head at a second end. The valve cap head has an elastomeric sleeve that is sufficiently elastic to slightly stretch about and securely engage a valve cap. The valve core head has an elastomeric sleeve, and coaxial with and interior of the sleeve is a rigid tube that terminates distal to the shaft at a bifurcated end. The rigid tube bifurcated end is designed to drop around and engage with a valve core, and with continued rotation unthread the valve core. Within the core of the rigid tube, and preferably securely engaged therewith, is an elastomeric tube. The elastomeric tube is of appropriate diameter and sufficiently elastic to securely grab and retain the valve core.
